Case study 5-7 is about the union filed a petition requesting an election for representation with e NLRB. The Employer (Jackson Equipment Company) made statements during the election that if they union was ruled in favor of the election, the employees benefits would be decreased. The employer made other statements that if the employees voted against the union that they would promise to run the company better. The employer did everything in their power to threaten their employees if they sided with the union and that is violation of the LMRA. Based upon section 8a-1 of the LMRA, each statement that the employer makes is showing that they are trying to influence or threaten the employees to vote against the union. These threat were taking away the benefits of the…
It might take us a while to come up with questions as we are discussing as a group. I would like to apologize if this has cause you any inconvenience. Also, you might want to take a look at our thesis for now.…
The National Collegiate Athletic Association was formed in 1906 as non-profit organization with the purpose of protecting students and setting official guidelines for sports. Since the formation of the NCAA in 1906, there has always been controversy of whether sports should be associated with universities and colleges. There have been numerous arguments attacking the NCAA suggesting that student-athletes are merely moneymakers for the institutions, rather than students, by earning millions of dollars in revenue each year in this commercialized industry. Academic enthusiasts contribute to the argument by emphasizing the importance of more money being invested into the athletic department rather then other departments throughout the school. However, these cons of the NCAA are heavily out weighed by the pros, as it’s proven that once schools enter the big time sports of NCAA they rarely leave it. Coltfelther supports this theory as he states that of the top 100 schools playing football in 1920, only…
At WGU we want you to graduate, not just enroll. Consequently, not every applicant is admitted because not every individual is a good “fit” for WGU’s programs and competency-based, online academic model.…
We should look deeper into what a college brings to the table, more than just the…
UTC has a student body population of 8,656, whereas UTK is that of 30,000. Because UTK is more populated, their student/teacher ratio isn’t as low as that of UTC. UTC has a student/teacher ratio of 18:1, which makes it easier for professors to interact with their students. The professors at UTC are very friendly and actually know students by name, which is very rare in most colleges. At UTC, tutors are offered in all departments of studies. These tutors can be your peers, your professors or even students who are in a higher level of the class that you are having trouble in.…
Tufts is essentially an intellectual and social paradise. Can I take courses called "How to Sell Drugs" and "Dope Fiends, Addicts and Junkies", in the same semester, anywhere else? Does any other university give a research award for making the library my second home? Where else is expressing your personality and being professional mutually inclusive? Could I not take a break from studying by running in a Zombie 5K? Life at Tufts would be perfect: an unparalleled education, spontaneous adventures and on-campus celebrations, collaborative innovation, and being part of an amazing and diverse family of scholars and friends.…
So, you have decided you want to go to college. Do you know what your options are? Read on to get a brief look at what these options have to offer and see what the pros and cons of each choice are. Every student is different and is looking for the type of college that fits them the best. Learning style and personal study preferences tend to assist in making the right choice. Attending college on a campus or online have similar outcomes but differ in how students attend class, complete class work, and interact with teachers and classmates. The decision is yours to make.…
At universities there is much less one on one time. Classrooms and lectures are fully crowded with hundreds of students per one teacher. I have friends that go to Kansas State University and I always hear them talking about how they can never get ahold of their teacher, or their teacher is too busy with other people to help them. I would hate that because if I pay to go to school then I want a good education.…
Some people like big classes but I prefer smaller class size. The social environment of the university and class size is amazing. Fewer students per class makes it easy for me to associate with the professors at personal level. This will contribute to motivation on my side as a student. I always want to share my problems with someone who can help and this is what professors at UC will provide to me. I believe that with encouragement from professors and staff members, I will be able to better improve myself both in academic study and personal growth. Leaving the community college will provide me with an avenue to engage in research carried out in the undergraduate school which is not available in the community college. In addition, the community…
They both are in the same town with a great traveling distance from my house. Since they are both in town, I’m able to travel to different restaurants and shopping centers. As well as still being able to visit my family whenever I’d like to. However, there are many differences between the two colleges as well.…

While WBT and ILT have similarities, they have differences as well. One of these differences is in the way the course is delivered. WBT is offered online, in a multimedia format where the student sits solo in front of a computer and interacts only with the content. ILT takes place in a classroom, where students receive lectures, ask questions of the instructor, and engage in discussions. A further difference is in the learning environment, including when the learning takes place. WBT is held at any time, at any place, on a computer with an internet connection. Not all students learn at the same pace, or at the same time (asynchronous). However, ILT is scheduled, and directed, and class start and end times are based on availability of faculties and instructor.…
We believe that CSW is a good match for Henry in many ways. He attended camp there several years ago and grew to love the beautiful setting and familiar atmosphere of the campus. CSW’s mission of diversity, open-mindedness and progressive educational principles are all in line with Henry’s core values. He is intrigued by the Mod system and appreciates the chance to explore a subject at a deeper level. He is a deep thinker and enjoys exploring problems from unique perspectives. The breadth and depth of the curriculum is perfect for Henry’s style of learning. He is non-traditional and does not enjoy rigid academic approaches. The social justice requirement is another aspect of the curriculum that we feel will be very appealing to Henry as he…
